Me: I have finished a comic script, the first in ages. If I am brave and smart, now I will send it to Leah Moore* for commentary. Leah: Dooooooooooo eeet! Me: But what if it’s AWFUL? Leah: Then I shall post a gif of me frowning slightly and shaking my head very slowly! *giggles helplessly* She felt it necessary to assure me that was a joke, after posting it. *laughs more* I love Leah. Funny, funny lady. :) *leah has volunteered for this, i do not normally just send things…

Ah! Chance!
Ah! Fernando Granea, one of my Take A Chance artists, sent me this for my birthday! *happy dances*! :) I have got so much comic stuff I want to do. Should be doing. Need to do. In my copious free time. Ai. (Seriously. A Chance-world prequel. A concurrent-to-Chance story. ElectriCity. That girl-and-her-dragon idea from years ago. I just wish I knew what the hell to do with *Chance*…)

We spent over an hour at the park yesterday chasing a frisbee around, which was great fun. My nephew has this lightweight mostly-fabric frisbee that rises and drops much more dramatically than a plastic one, as it’s much more affected by the wind. After a while I got to where I could throw it to…
girls’ night out
There is very little more entertaining in this world than having Sarah Rees Brennan relate the plot of one of her favourite books to you. It is, I’m fairly convinced, *much* better than actually reading the books, which I think cannot possibly match up to the dramatic and detailed retellings Sarah performs.

Flambards is, by Sarah’s retelling, a Gothic romance sort of thing…
